A GREAT POPULAR OYOLoPEDIA.

The second volume of Alden's Mani
fold C~yclopedia more than bears ont
the promises of the first. There seems
Il be little doubt that it will prove to
be the great popular Cyclopedia for
the next score of years at least. The
embodiment of an Unabridged D%iction-
airy of Language and a complete Cyclic
pedia OF Universal Knowledge in one
work, in large type, with thousands of
illustrations, and all for a price less
than people have been used to paying
for q Dictionary alone, is not only a
novelty in plan, but to the ordinary
book buyer the fact is hardly less than
astounding. Its accomplishment will
certainly be creditable to Alden's Lite
rary Revolution.
AS to the quality of the work, both
literary and mechanical, any common
sense reader is capable of Judging. The
We volumes received at this office
(Which any reader is welcome to call
and examine) are certainly deserving
of the unstInted praise which they seem
to be receiving, as evince the folio wing
quotations.
1.-THE book in all respects nor than
answers my expectations. 1t is a very
neat volume, of a torn convenient for
use, firmly bound, of large, clear type,
with contents of just that general char
acter which the popular reader re-
quires-cOmprehensive, accurate, and
compact. Its marvelously low cost
makes it a prize eagerly to be sought in
every intelligence loving household"

HAGGARD PROTESTS.

r. Rider Haggard protests that he
did not write He, and that the attempt
is made to have him appear as the au-
thor. Larceny is mean in any shape.
We nav respect a man who strikes
down his enemy in the heat of passion:
we may admire the bold criminal at
least for his boldness; but the thief is
always despicable; and of all the mean
thieves the n who endeavors to steal
the capital which a man has created
out of his brains, is the meanest. We
hope the press will smoke ont the
writer of He, and roast him well.

CAPTURE OF A HoRsE-THIEF.
j. A. Fenneil and William Boyd one of Pink
erton's detectives, returned from Chicago yester-
day morning with the thief who, week ago, last
Saturday night, stole two horses and buggies,
one belonging to Mr.. Fennell, and the other to
John Scudder. the iverymau. The prisoner is
Hugh Mcdonald, old-time thief, who has
served three or four terms in the penitentiary.
The night he stole the horses he drove from this
city to Ladoga. small town in Montgomery
county. on the L., n A & G. railroad whore he
shipped the animals to Chicago Mr.. Fennel
traced him to that city. and there secured the
services of Mr.. Boyd. On Sunday evening they
found Mcdonald riding along the street on Mr..
Fennelis horse After his arrest he told where
Scudders horse could be found, and both will be
shipped back to-day. When arrested he mad
$50 on his person, and that attached
by Mr.. Fennell. through Squire Smockf to
pay the expenses of the trip. Mcdonald was
released from the penitentiary several months
ago, and he is believed TO be the man who has
been doing the most of the DEMONSTRATING about
the city recently. There is a probability that he
had some confederates who assisted him in his
shipments. and the detectives are now looking
after them. Three years ago he. with John
Spellman. was arrested for stealing wheat from
a farmer west of the city. and he was sentenced
to Imprisonment for three years while Spellman
was released account of bad health 1t was
Mcdonald who led the gang of prisoners that
escaped from tho county Jail during the term of
Sheriff Hess. by going out over the roof at mid
day. He waived examination before the Mayor,
and was sent to the grand jury.
